Artist: Frank McCarthy
Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare 1960s double-sided poster. It is printed on a very glossy paper that is glossy on both sides, which makes it seem like a plastic type of material. This poster was one of a small group of such double-sided posters that were found at one time. Other than this small group, I have only seen a few of these 1960s double-sided posters before, including a group that was found in London, which included a "Breakfast at Tiffany's", which was auctioned and sold for a HUGE amount of money! It appears that it was some sort of experiment that was tried in the 1960s and then abandoned, and not used again until the 1990s, when movie posters were sometimes made in double-sided versions (for use in light boxes).We have only auctioned this poster twice before but both of those examples were folded and this one is not! Note that the image on the reverse of this poster is a mirror image of the image on the front! We have provided images of both the front and back of this poster, but of course, your are purchasing ONE poster, not two! Also note that this one-sheet measures 27 1/2" x 41 1/2" [70 x 105 cm].

Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had some stains, pinholes and tears around the edges and someone performed some slight restoration to those areas without backing the poster. You can see slight signs of the defects, but the poster displays well from a reasonable viewing distance. Still bear in mind the defects and the restoration before bidding on this rare poster.
